Why Prime Chargers engage a Manual Equalizing feature?
For a Lead acid battery, aging affects each cell differently, since the cells are connected in series, controlling the individual cell voltage during charge is virtually impossible, even if the correct overall voltage is applied; a weak cell or poor condition cell will generate its own voltage level and will intensify the condition further, so, an additional Manual Equalizing charging mode is built on Prime switching mode series chargers, they are used with a high voltage charging to balance the voltage of each cell, reverse the high concentration of electrolyte at the bottom, minimize the battery cell voltage variation, bring all cells to equal charging state.
